package failures for 2012Q2

This information is a couple days out of date, but I'll update it as
needed over the weekend.
Thanks to Aleksey Cheusov we have failure data for 5.1 as well as
netbsd-current.
There are 130 total failures listed here, of which around 100 would
have been counted without the 5.1 data. As usual there are a dozen or
so more packages requiring manual download or similar that I'm not
including.
------
benchmarks/phoronix-test-suite
www/davical
Fails in cheusov@'s 5.1 build because PHP_BASE_VERS isn't
being set. Not sure if this is a distbb issue or not.
cad/pcb
On netbsd-5 gets "C compiler cannot create executables".
chat/jabberd2
Fails linking to (its own) set_debug_log_from_config().
chat/pidgin-facebookchat
Missing library libjson-glib-1.0.so.0 (probably bad rpaths)
converters/p5-MARC-Charset
This fails to link because p5-gdbm isn't always actually
linked to gdbm. PR 44985. After the last fixes, this only
fails in some builds. There isn't a clear pattern.
Bootstrapped vs. not bootstrapped may be part of it.
databases/cstore
This throws an exception during build... in some environments.
It is a nuisance to work with because the distfiles contain
extremely large sample data sets.
databases/libcassandra
On netbsd-5, cannot find libthrift. Works on -current.
databases/sqlsharpgtk
mono linking issues (best bet probably is to look for an update)
devel/clisp-syscalls
lisp issues - it fails because one of the packages it's trying
to build ends up locked, or something like that.
devel/electric-fence
SIGSEGV during build, thought to be amd64, or maybe LP64,
specific. For some reason I can't reproduce this myself in my
build, although everyone else seems to be able to.
devel/florist
This is currently skipped because of ada compiler issues, but
was going to be / should be updated.
devel/mico
Assertion failure during build. I can't reproduce this, no
idea why.
devel/mono-tools
In my build enviroment this installs extra files and fails.
devel/p5-VCP
"not a HASH reference"; the problem is that
textproc/p5-XML-AutoWriter is not compatible with Perl 5.14 and
needs to be updated/fixed.
devel/sdcc
This fails in some NetBSD environments, depending on the exact
pattern and length of pathnames, because it uses the find
-exec {} + syntax, which in NetBSD's find has completely broken
size accounting and sometimes fails with E2BIG.
devel/swt
Missing library libXtst.so.7 (probably bad rpaths)
devel/xsd
Boost problems (boost::filesystem::path) plus when that's
fixed, PR 43691 may apply.
editors/Sigil
On netbsd-5, the patches fail to apply. They work fine on
-current. No obvious reason why.
editors/gobby
glibmm issue after last update of glib2/glibmm.
editors/mule
temacs dumps core. (Several causes of this have already been found
and fixed, but at least one more remains.)
editors/xemacs-current
temacs dumps core, PR 35500. This issue is Olde. It may be
possible to fix it by updating.
emulators/mame
Fails on netbsd-5 due to lack of popcount().
games/pokerth
boost issues. This has been broken for a couple years. There's
an update available that might fix it.
games/qnetwalk
net/kiax
security/qca
security/qca-tls
wm/icecc
In some environments, qmake does something unspeakable and
ends up trying to use paths with tons of ".." components and
a missing slash, so install fails miserably. This affects a
number of packages and there's no clear pattern of which
environments trigger it.
games/simgear
boost issues. Hopefully there's an update to fix it; I haven't
looked yet. Note that this package blocks the build of
games/flightgear, which is (arguably) a fairly high-profile
package.
geography/proj-swig
Can't find projects.h. This is because it was using an
unsupported API of projects, which was removed upstream.
Hopefully there's an upstream patch for it.
geography/qlandkartem
Can't find projects.h. Same issue as proj-swig.
graphics/camlimages
Broke on libtiff 4.0, needs (not terribly involved) patching
or maybe an update.
graphics/evas
Fails on netbsd-5 due to lack of immintrin.h.
graphics/f-spot
Needs gnome-keyring-sharp imported from wip, then probably
some other stuff.
graphics/gri
In Joerg's build, the docs do not install. I can't reproduce
the behavior in my build. Probably there's a build dep missing.
graphics/koverartist
C++ issues appearing on gcc 4.1 (netbsd-5).
graphics/librsvg
Fails on netbsd-5 since the last update, because -fPIC is not
being used. This doesn't happen on -current.
graphics/ruby-opengl
Missing library libGL.so.2. Probably bad rpaths. Only ruby18
and ruby19 fail; ruby193 works. Not sure what's different.
inputmethod/py-input-pad
Only PYTHON_VERSION_DEFAULT builds because otherwise it
depends on multiple Python versions at once. The right
way to fix this is to split out the Python support of
inputmethod/ibus.
lang/cint
Assorted C++ issues. Also annoying to work with because the
build doesn't stop on error.
lang/clang
Fails on netbsd-5 because -fPIC is not being used.
lang/gcc47
Dies linking libgcj... but only in some environments.
lang/mercury
Generic build failure. When that's fixed, it'll probably
revert to its previous problem of SIGSEGV during build.
Apparently works on i386.
lang/polyml
"ld: bad value"... but only in some environments.
lang/racket
lang/racket-textual
SIGABRT during build. Works on 32-bit platforms.
math/cgal
Fails on netbsd-5 due to lack of fenv.h.
mail/cone
C++ issues with ncurses since it was updated.
math/octave-forge
Needs complete rework for current octave.
math/py-pytables
SIGSEGV in build, in the py25 version only. And only in
Joerg's build; I don't get the same behavior.
mbone/vic-devel
Problems with the x264 codec, not sure what's causing it.
meta-pkgs/desktop-gnome
meta-pkgs/gnome-devtools
These end up depending on both webkit-gtk and webkit-gtk3.
misc/hanzim
Install requires an X server. This is readily fixable if
anyone thinks it's worth bothering.
misc/koffice
C++ issues. (PR 46317)
misc/molden
So far the distfile hasn't changed again, but it doesn't build
owing to some FORTRAN lossage. Updating it might help, or might
result in the constantly changing distfile problem again. This
package is probably also a good candidate for removal.
misc/openoffice3
Shared object "libcurl.so.4" not found. PR 46567.
misc/root
Fails on fpos_t on -current and -6. Will probably have other
problems when that's fixed.
misc/window
Fails on netbsd-5 because it expects the system headers to
provide __printflike.
multimedia/dvb-apps
Fails on netbsd-5 due to lack of dev/dtv/dtvio.h.
multimedia/fuppes
Doesn't like ffmpeg any more.
multimedia/libva
Fails on netbsd-5 because of a glx symbol conflict. Not sure
yet why it arises.
multimedia/vlc
x11/startup-notification
Fails on netbsd-5 because it requires x11-xcb. Should probably
just be marked not for netbsd-5 if X11_TYPE is "native".
multimedia/vlc08
Needs an older ffmpeg. Stephen Borrill wants to keep this and
was going to import an old ffmpeg to support it, but hasn't yet.
multimedia/vlc2
Fails on netbsd-5 because there's no O_DIRECTORY. Should be
easy to patch.
multimedia/vls
Fails on "dvbpsi" codec.
multimedia/xfmedia
Fails on new xine-lib.
net/arla
Expects kernel headers (and so fails right off in most builds)
and also expects kernel headers that don't exist. Only buildable
on netbsd-4, IIRC. Unless I've got mixed up again, should be
removed in favor of net/openafs.
net/citrix_ica
Assorted problems; most immediate is that the packaging doesn't
handle amd64 correctly.
net/dcsharp
mono linking issues. Best bet is probably to look for an update.
net/delegate
Link errors on own symbols. Might be gcc inline problems, might
be more severe than that.
net/ettercap
Fails on netbsd-5 because sys/lwp.h is not compilable on its own.
net/kftpgrabber
Fails on netbsd-5 because it doesn't like netbsd-5's openssl.
net/kismet
Fails in Joerg's build due to problems with ImageMagick, which
I can't so far reproduce.
net/ktorrent
Expects to find solid/control/powermanager.h, but it doesn't
exist.
net/mppe-lkm
Requires kernel source; but even if the kernel source is
present, still doesn't build, at least on -current.
net/nocol
Link failure on its own symbols, for unclear reasons. It looks
like a MAKE_JOBS issue, but is not.
net/ns
Conflicting declarations of ethernet structures.
net/omniNotify
LP64 build failures because of C++ overloading issues.
This should be easy to fix.
net/openwbem
C++ issues.
parallel/openmpi
Various plugins don't install. Currently building an update.
pkgtools/pkg_select
const casts (I thought this was fixed?)
print/ruby-prawn
ruby18 (only) fails with a syntax error. Maybe it should just
be marked as not for ruby18.
print/tcl-pdflib
Cannot find own library. Might be MAKE_JOBS.
print/tex-bagpipetex
Cannot open quickref.dvi. Not clear exactly what's going on,
but (AFAIK) it hasn't built since it was imported...
security/ap-modsecurity
Fails when built against apache24. Others work.
security/bitstir
Generic build failure.
security/isakmpd
Generic build failure.
security/libprelude-ruby
Shared lib missing after install; not clear why.
security/openssl
Fails on netbsd-5 by spewing assembly to stdout instead of
into the assembler. This appeared in the -current builds as
well and got fixed; no idea yet why the fix doesn't work on
netbsd-5.
security/sfs
C++ issues. This issue is Olde.
security/validns
Fails on netbsd-5 due to lack of stpcpy().
shells/ast-ksh
shells/static-ast-ksh
Unfetchable. May be fixed.
sysutils/burn
Invalid objc. Might not be hard to fix but requires some objc
knowledge.
sysutils/p5-Sys-Filesystem
"env: ./build: No such file or directory"... in some
environments and not others.
sysutils/sformat
Fails on getline(), and the makefiles don't stop on error.
sysutils/wipe
Can't find DIOCGPART.
sysutils/xenkernel3
"variably modified ... at file scope" errors.
sysutils/xentools41
rpath relative to WRKDIR.
wm/afterstep
PLIST divergence. PR 41965. This issue is Olde. The problem is
that a program used to process the docs is failing silently, and
it's not clear why, or why it fails in some build environments
and not others.
wm/fvwm-themes
PLIST divergence since last update.
wb/obconf
Cannot find 'obrender' and 'obparser'. This is because it needs
to be updated for more recent wm/openbox... but upstream hasn't
bothered to release anything.
www/ap-rpaf
www/ap-scgi
These fail on apache24, and are otherwise ok.
www/ap-ssl
This doesn't get along with recent openssl.
www/aws
rpath relative to WRKDIR.
www/nvu
C++ issues with freetype.
www/ocsigen
Needs update (in gnats).
www/paros
Pile of missing libraries; probably bad rpaths.
www/pound
openssl problems (?)
x11/grandr_applet
Gnome issues.
x11/openbsd-input-ws
Does not work with current X server. PR 41585. This issue is Olde.
There's a new upstream version (with a slightly different name,
just to be confusing) that might help.
x11/qt4-creator
qdoc problems.
x11/ruby-gnome2-gtksourceview2
Fails on netbsd-5 because -fPIC is not being used.
x11/ruby-wxruby
ruby18 works; ruby19 and ruby193 fail. The problem is that the
version of swig is wrong; however, the version of swig these
require has other problems that preclude importing it. There is,
IIRC, now a newer swig that should work for everyone but it has
to be tested.
And finally, the following packages fail on netbsd-5 (with native X)
because x11-links is hiding native X libraries they need, and things
are not set up to allow using the corresponding libraries from pkgsrc
X instead. (They get hidden because they are older than
BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS for the pkgsrc X versions. This seems wrong but
is not easily changed.) Still more fail on netbsd-5-0.
